ST. ANN'S SUMMER SCHOOL (S.A.S.S.) was founded in the summer of 1995 by Mrs Cynthia A. J. Sealey a.k.a. "Auntie Lynda" and is organized and directed by her. It is an extension of St. Ann's Kindergarten School and is located at Stuart's Land, Fair Field Cross Road, Tudor Bridge, St. Michael, Barbados. West Indies. (The Kindergarten school, which has been in existence since 1991, is held during the normal school year and caters to children between ages 1 years and 5 years). |
Many children from various Sunday Schools and non-church goers attend. This time is seen as a treasured opportunity to impart the knowledge of Jesus Christ and a sense of self-esteem in the hearts of the children who attend. Each year the focus is on a new Biblical motivational theme, and the children are exposed to learning new memory verses, gospel songs, choruses, etc., based on the specific theme. |

very rewarding time in the lives of each student attending.
